Dear Editor:
I, and I'm sure many of your readers, read with shock and disgust of the acts of mindless vandalism inflicted on lifesaving property situated on our local mountains over the past few weeks.
Why would an individual or group go out of their way to destroy lifesaving tools put together by the wonderful group of men and women of North Shore Rescue? What bothers me the most is that my good friend Tim Jones was the mind behind the vision of setting up these outposts of goodness to expedite good care of the unfortunate and possibly their own members.
If these people who did the damage saw the outpouring of love for Tim and the team at his memorial this never would have happened.
Yes, the team will restock and rebuild, but should never have to.
To the unfortunates who did this damage it's a good thing you didn't hurt yourselves doing so as the team would have to come and get you. .. can you imagine?
